    Artisan Cheese Board and Wine Flights
    Larkin T.

    The flavors of the food, paired with the flights of wine mixed with the ambiance ensure you have a fantastic afternoon! Great place for a casual drink and or meeting with friends. Great Vibes + Great Service + Great Food | Can't wait to go back!

    My family and I have been to BCW multiple times and each time we have enjoyed the food and service. It's a SoMo gem and is highly recommended.

    I was pleasantly surprised by BCW! The ambiance was great and it's super cute inside, service was good and the food was delicious! If I had one complaint it was that my Paloma was very strong and didn't really taste like a Paloma. But I saw other people mention the cheesy potatoes and had to give them a try and I'm so glad I did. They were truly fantastic and it comes with a rather large portion. My grilled cheese was one of the best I've ever had. The combination of hot honey, Brie, and prosciutto will get me on any day, but this far exceeded my expectations. The bread was delicious and perfectly grilled. If I was a local this would totally be my go-to spot!!

    Was passing through town for work and decided to stop in for an early dinner. I was one of the few people eating, so the service was great and the food was steaming hot! The atmosphere is great and would be perfect to meet up with girlfriends. I was looking to sit outside in the nice weather, but unfortunately they would not accommodate. The crispy potatoes were fantastic - props to another reviewer on here that convinced me to order! The grilled cheese was great too, but in my opinion could've used a prosciutto or turkey to cut the creaminess of the brie.

    The food, ambiance, and employees were so nice. The food was excellent. Only thing is the Arugula salad is not filling. Was hungry immediately. Everything was so delish regardless . Ready to go there soon.

    The Folded Spritz, a nice cocktail that was made with Sake.

    I finally got a chance to try this place and I was not disappointed at all. I walked in and the staff was friendly and welcoming. I sat at the bar as I went by myself. The bartender was very nice and thorough in explaining the menus and the place so that i could have a great first experience. I looked over the menu and picked out the Spicy beef grilled cheese with arugula salad and the french onion soup. All three items were very delicious. I cleared the plate and bowl like I had never had a meal before lol. The place had a decent amount of people, but not too crowded. I would recommend going early or reserving a table to make it easier during later hours. I will definitely be returning to this place to try more of their food. If you want great food and drinks I recommend you check this place out.

    5 star experience at BCW (Bread Cheese Wine)! Walked by this place and met the owner, Nathan. Super friendly guy! Decor and Ambiance: I love the different art pieces and the attention to detail. Nathan had the art curated for his vision of the restaurant. He was intentional about the designs and who created the pieces (friends, etc). The BCW logo is fun too! You can totally see this restaurant in a place like LA (I'm visiting from LA). Drinks: the cocktails are so fun! Very instagramable! We got the wine flight (Nathan's). All the wines were so good - discovered some that I haven't tried before. Staff: as friendly as Nathan! There were many staff members around - they are great to talk to and are attentive to whether you are ready to order or want the check I would come back if I'm back in Little Rock - would love to try the food (I was tempted to order many plates, but we were short on time). Definitely recommend BCW!

    Hanger steak, if I remember correctly. It was fantastic!

    I have enjoy many varieties of their food. They stared out with the many variations of grilled cheese sandwiches. I have not found one I don't like yet. The wait staff and bartender are on top of it. Very helpful when you ask for suggestions ranging from what do they like on the menu, to what is best to pair with a meal. I like the open look of the restaurant. But with this comes the noise level. It is just what you deal with. I guess more a bar feel with this respect. I do wish they would come up with a way to dampen the noise level. They have opened up some seating outside so you can get away from the indoor sounds. Overall, I come back all the time.

    LOVED This place! It's super cute, the food and wine was delicious and the waiter was friendly and attentive. Checked all the boxes. The crispy potatoes dipped in the cheese fondue was some of the best I've had. I could eat that everyday.

    Board games #5 very good!

    Great drink and food LR need more places like this! It's a good place for a work lunch/meeting or date night. No TVs just nice music and good conversation.

    Breakfast with perfectly cooked pancetta and extra hollandaise sauce.

    By the Glass - Mixed Mediterranean Olives ($5.50) after my son had eaten about 1/3.

    "By the Glass" may be a wine bar but for me, after a single visit, it will be forever known as "the…read moreplace with the olives". To accompany our happy hour wines my son and I ordered two of his favorite things: Mixed Mediterranean Olives ($5.50) and a Spanish cheese ($9). Perhaps I've spent too long in the Bay Area or perhaps they do things differently in Arkansas but the mountainous bowl of olives that arrived at our table sparked utter joy. This wasn't 5, 10, or even 15 olives; I think it might've been a whole jar's worth. It was not only amusing, but an utter delight. One hundred percent chance of a return visit for the olives alone. We followed with the Spanish cheese and more wine but there was no getting beyond the olives. That's what we'd be talking about. Forever. By the Glass has a good happy hour ($5/glass for selected wine) which pertains only to the wines. It's a low-key, comfortable, unpretentious spot that's received recognition as the best bar, the best wine bar, the best trendy bar, and the best happy hour bar from a variety of publications. During my visit it was quiet and welcoming, an environment I'd feel equally comfortable in either solo or with friends. If you like wine, "By the Glass" is a good find. If you like olives it's even better.

The decor was very homey and intimate with quirky artwork and a really neat cork BtG design near the bar. Great ambience They had a great selection of wine and even some beer for those that dont like wine. I asked for a dry red suggestion and the wine was very good. It was smooth, dry and perfect for the night. Would definitely visit again next time i'm in Little Rock!

    Already a Kavanaugh Boulevard institution, The Hillcrest Fountain recently received a total…read moremakeover (2020). Gutted and completely redone, this bar still serves up only beer & wine and attracts the local neighborhood late 20-30-somethings crowd. No food, but plenty of surprises await you... AMBIANCE Low lights enhance the dark wood and urban chic furnishings. The classic long bar has modern comfortable bar stools and those cool hangers for a handbag below. Booths and two-top bar tables are spread out and don't overcrowd the space. Even when packed with people, the crowd flow is still ok. For a dive bar vibe, this bar is spotless and stays clean. Separate men's & women's clean bathrooms are in the back near the door to their outdoor patio (not open yet, but I hear soon). Thursday-Saturday after 8pm it becomes THE place to be at night in this part of the city. Patrons during the day and during happy hour are mostly regular locals. This is a great place to meet, watch a game, play a game, share intriguing conversation, and enjoy beer and wine. Ask the bartender to show you a peek of the speakeasy door. Or don't. There is one salty bartender. BEER & WINE ONLY That said, the taps rotate an excellent sampling of local craft brews and popular national brands at very low prices compared to other local bars serving draft beer. Happy Hour daily, but not sure of what the hours or prices are. Just ask a bartender. The new keg beer system is ice cold and they seem to have just the right amount of foam as to not waste the draft. Those bartenders know how to pull a proper pint! Many other beers in bottles and cans are available. Yuengling Lager on tap ran out, but they had Yuengling Light available. They don't stay out long and the knowledgeable and polite bartenders will offer an alternative, not just say, they are out. The local popular Flyway Blue Wing was on-tap as well. The other taps spread the beer spectrum from sours to IPAs. The wine by the bottle or glass offerings are clearly well thought out with pricing and vintages meant to fit everyone's budget and wine palate. Specials by the glass are above on a chalkboard. I had a great 5 oz. glass of a Russian River Valley pinot noir, priced excellent. ENTERTAINMENT Along the mural painted East wall is a classic bar shuffleboard puck-style game. It's the one with the sawdust alley and you glide the pucks. Very cool and chill. There are two full sized billiard tables in the front center area of this bar. See the bartender with your ID and they will hand you the billiard balls rack. Nice new large televisions above the bar typically playing whatever is popular. The Olympic trials were on and the NBA finals at the same time. Bartenders are cool and will put on whatever you want within reason. Music is probably the best in the city, with the bartenders making their own playlist vibes. I think Spotify Pro with no commercials. Super groovy music, not just some selfish rando personal playlist. It's actually very well thought out. The music playlists are probably one of the most surprising things about this bar. Not too loud, just the right tempo, and a great balance of things you know and new music you want to know. Kudos to the sound vibe.

    Ugh, when will this place get over itself?…read more In short, it sucks. Too loud, too smoky, and to top it off....no LIQUOR?? This kind of establishment makes me NEED stiff drink, so I was quite unsettled to learn it had none. The location has the potential to be great, but they definitely need a little help. Meanwhile, I'll go the extra half mile to Pizza D.
